Sing in a quartet

Barbershop music originated with quartets – each person carrying their own part creating and improvising harmonies around the melody.

Whilst singing in a quartet can be very challenging due to the fact there is only one person singing each part, it is equally rewarding, to find the right balance of voices, abilities and personalities to ring those chords and wow the audiences.
